graduation.
cant believe that 2yrs ago when i stepped into vjc for the 1st time. i wore that brownbrown uniform and knew immediately that eyes were gonna be fixed on me (more like on my uniform)
there was the pressure with blending in with everyone, all those from powerful secondary sch..
i was tricked by my good fren Hongsheng, apparently i wasnt the only one from Bedok Green to enter VJ. he apparently DSA-ed in and kept it a secret until he decided to pop in front of me during Day1. so i was posted to S61..
then came the JAE which i failed to re-enter VJ, and landed in SA. i rmbed seeing Gen there. stayed there for a day and by God's grace, successfully appealed back to vj.. newer pple came, some left. the "lala" clique all went to different schools. szehuan landed in AJ, yiying in acjc and ben.. well he chose RJ.. i dont blame him, he's really smart and i respect his decision. and i think the worst is that emily left, i think i miss her alot.. even now..
decided to join piano ensemble and dropped out of Council. i think many pple didnt know the reason.. i was scared that pple would judge me and label me as "religious". i dropped out bcos pple said that council will take up alot of my time. together with piano exams, studies, church activities and family/friends... it would abit hard to juggle. and so i decided to sacrifice that to God and move on with something i really liked.
in fact i met the best pple i've known in piano ensemble. pearly, clar, tim, terence, marc, weishan, sihan, samantha, barnabas and ... these pple brought laughter into my life, and i'm so glad to know them.
then came midyrs where i did so badly.. it made me realise everythin abt jc life. and i rmbed that i dislikes Thomas Teo from the day i got back my math results, bcos he said, "i think now u know why we didnt accept you back to vj after 1st three mths right?"... in short, he said i CMI..
i worked super hard after that.. and got an A for math Promos. and i knew that i got Mr Teo's attention, and could sense that he was proud of me. maybe he said those things just to pull me back to reality. right now, i seriously love this teacher of mine. i think he's one of the best-est teacher i've ever come across.
j2.. OGL was the main introduction to 2007. i rmbed how i walked dwn the hall dressed as an angel as for Orientation Opening Day. how funny.. how embarrassing..
being an ogl is really really fun, better than being a year1 and enjoying Orientation.
after that.. well, it was time-travel. 10 mths practically flew by.. in between were the frequent struggles with school, friends and family. began to meet newer pple bcos of OGL-ing, yuanhong even asked me whether i was very popular bcos i kept on waving hands to pple whom i knew. practically every corner i turned to, there was someone i knew.
so.. .. .. .. prelims. and now graduation
as i sat on my bed on Friday morning, i began to recall all the things that occurred in vj. the fun, the drama, the teachers, the laughter, the performances, the friends, the joy... kudos for the video makers and house comm for coming up with a great farewell video and skit. i laughed non-stop.
ohh and pegasus house won! haha.. it's kinda special cos i'm graduating and yet i get to see our hse winning the House Cup. haha
it was also the last time i dance vj mass-dance. the last time i sang the vj anthem with pride (i really felt proud when i sang it). the last time i will be wearing that tie. the last time i did the "Yo VJC" cheer.
coming to vj was a childhood dream. i'm so glad to achieve it. i couldnt have done it if it werent for that appeal that i made, and not possible if God didnt grant it. i've lived the dream. i've enjoyed it.
victorian? yes i am..
now all that's left is the A levels.. happy mugging to all :)
